An 8-year-old boy was killed and two relatives were seriously injured in a two-vehicle crash in Chili Thursday morning.

David Monacelli, 36, of Brockport was eastbound on Morgan Road when he became distracted and drove through a stop sign at the intersection with Route 386 (Scottsville-Chili Road), striking a southbound car around 8:30 a.m., said Cpl. John Helfer of the Monroe County Sheriff's Office.

Eight-year-old Kael Nicolosi was thrown from the backseat of the southbound car, Helfer said. He was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital and pronounced dead. He was wearing his seat belt, but slipped out of it during the impact.

Three others in the boy’s family were in the car, with his grandmother Valerie Lewis, 63, of Scottsville, driving, his mother, Tiffany Nicolosi, 35, of Chili, in the front passenger seat and 9-year-old Keith Nicolosi the backseat.
